plotting problem with trigonometric functions



I can confirm that behaviour, using

Maxima version: 5.26.0
Maxima build date: 1:35 12/20/2011
Host type: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Lisp implementation type: ECL
Lisp implementation version: 11.1.1

Plotting just sec(x) or cos(x) is not a problem,
but the product seems to run into an infinite loop.
